Fuca, etc. The required information is
being procured from officers of the Board
of Trade, insurance, steamer and steam tug
agents, and the Pilot Board. Increased
facilities for telegraph and telephone COM
munication with the entrance to the Straits
and with Race light are an imperative ne
cessity, as III the present days of competi-
ti0n in the tea as i'll every other trade the
earliest information Of the arrival of ships
must be wired to Montreal and New York.
To make the quick transmission of this
news possible, this Improvement will be
effected at once, and apromise to this effect
has ueen given to Mr.. Frazar by officers of
the board. Mr.. Frazar is of opinion that
the passenger traffic will grow to consider
able proportions from England and the
United States to Japan, China, and India,
with naturally a return OF the same rs soon
as the steamers of the company are perma-
nently established. The avoidance of the
Red Sea and it's excessive heat will cause
a large number of those going to and from
England to avail themselves of the new
route. Mr.. Frazar favOrably recommends
the Canadian route to India, China, and
Japan, as against the old hot and uncOm-
Portable journey to and from England by
way of the Red Sea and the SueZ Canal.

WARFARE.

The question Of submarine warfare
would appear to be advanced an I'M.
portant stage by a new submarine Tor
pedO boat which was tried on Satur-
day last in the West Indin Docks in
the presence of Lord Charles Beres-
ford and some other naval officers
and gentlemen interested in such mat
lers. The great problem for solution
in this class of boat is "a simple and
ready means Of effecting submersion
quickly, and of again rising to the sur
face as frequently as may be desired.
Many attempts have been made to
compass this object. by means Of
screws, INCLINED @Pl,9pesg' ,wa'er-com-
partmentfs, ALTERNATELY flied and empti-
ed, and btbI1er G6n'rlYNhees. The pre-
sent i"Y,e5hDJEGQ9Tnfhl hhoEM99vfRFE involves none
of these. cBBEEiTa9fflllp|fs.n lrT!Fhe principle
upon wl'Gh fhei gmnrg ard emer.
sion Of the new boat depend is simply
hat of displacement. While lying IN
the surface the boat has u given
amount Of displacement. To effect
immersion this displacement is reduc-
ed, and when it is desired to raise her
to the surface again the displacement
is increased. A fair analogy is that
of a telescope dropped into the water
when extended for use, in which. con
dition y will float for a given time. IF
dropped into the water closed up it
will Straightway sink to the bottom.
The idea Of utilizing this principle
originated with Mr.. Andrew Camp
bell, and was worked out in practice
by him in conjunction with Mr.. Ed
ward Wellesley and Mr.. G. F.. Lyon,

Electricity also supplies light, when

Air under pressure is stored on board

days supply; the electrical batteries
also have a similar storage .capa-
city. The electrical machinery has
been designed by Mr.. Graydon
Poore and supplied by Messrs. Lewis
Olrick and Co.
When lying on the surface Of the
water a depth of only about ten inches
Of the central upper portion of che
boat is visible above the watef-line,
and this is surmounled by a steel con-
ming tower about lin. high and 15in.
diameter and pierced with four sight
holes. Entrance and exit are obtain
ed by means of a manhOle on the deck
which is secured with a watertight
Joint, and there is room for six persons
in the central portion of the boat. Dis
placement is increased or reduced by
mean of cylindrical chambers which
are projected or withdrawn telescope
cally from the sides of the vessel, ami
by this simple means she can be made
to rise or fall in the water, slowly or
quickly, at the will of those in com.
mand. This was amply demonstrated
on Saturday, when Lord Charles
BeresIord, with others, went down in
her, Lord Charles expressing himself
very strongly as to the value of this
new vertical ~manouvring power. The
boat was many times submerged to
the bottom of the dock, about lit,
and brought TO the surface again on "a
perfectly even keel. she was also
propelled "a short distance, connexion
being made with the batteries by hand,
but as the motors were not coupled
up with the current nothing further
was attempted. The area for a run,
moreover, was too circumscrlbed,
there being a number of vessels lying
in the docks, which would have i'm,
pcded progress. The main applica-
ton Of the system would appear to lie
in the direction of submarine warfare,
although it is not intended that it shall
subserve this purpose exclusively, as
the inventors have designed arrange.
ments for applying it to all classes "f
submarine operations i'll lieu of the
diving bell. 1t is also to be observed
that, although only applied to a 6Ott-
boat, this size in no why indicates a
Limitation of the principle. which can
be applied to any Siz"d vessel. The
present dimensions were only adopted
because they correspond to those of %
second-cIass torpedo bont. The in
vention appears to be one Of much
merit, and well worth the attention Of
the Government. which it will doubt

THE EASTERN PROBLEM
tDGily TelegrGpb.)


The candidature Of Prince Ferdi-
nand of C0burg-Gothn is taking cor
sistency. The Prince himself is by
no means adverse to the idea, and /
have good reason to believe that it is
not regarded altogether unfnvourabIy
by Russia. At the same time, the re-
port that the Bulgarian delegates
came to Vienna for the purpose of
sounding the Austrian Government
with regard to the Princes candida
tire is inaccurate. They did not
know on arriving here hat his name
would be put forward in connection
with the Bulgarian throne. Nor was
it once mentioned between them aud
Count KaInoky, who said to them,
three or four times during their inter
view, ~ have no candidatnre to pro-
pose" The same statement is likely
TO be made to them at Berlin, yet it
is impossible to believe that a cnndl-
date so acceptable both to Austria and
Germany, was suggested by mere &C
cidant. It is evident that neither the
Austrian nor German Governments
care to take any ostensible initiative
in thea matter, although they were
certainly not sorry to see the name
Of Prince Ferdinand mentioned in the
newspapers. 1t is expected that NJ.
Gres,-of and his colleagues will be IN
formed of Russia's disposition mt the
Berlin Foreign Office. Even if they
receive no formal communication it is
thought likely that they will obtain u
few friendly hints that will suffice TO
enlighten them on the subject. | saw
NJ. Grekof this evening, and he told
me that neither he nor his colleagues
know even now whether the Coburg
candidature was serious or not. They
would only be too happy should it
prove to be SO. They are not leaving
